It is pretty obviously staged. Maybe it was a video project.

  1. Nobody has that many backpacks ready to throw

  2. The backbacks don't contain anything harmful, like books

  3. The person observing (or the camera man) doesn't react in any way.

Do you need a reason to throw backpacks? Fanny packs, however, require explanation.

[–]Tattycakes 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It was quite co-ordinated backpackery (I vote for this word to replace douchebaggery), perhaps he was the class nerd and one day they decided to just obliterate him for the lulz. Also, fanny is American for bum? Bumbags, they were so useful and stylish in the 90's weren't they? =D

[–]Captain-Damn 3 points4 points ago

Considering that the cameraman does not react, the backpack volley was too perfectly timed (plus who throws a backpack/has a backpack ready to be thrown at any moment unless its planned?) and the fact that they all seemed to be empty seems to suggest that this was staged and this kid is probably fine.

So how do I make sure I don't see atheism posts? I don't have a problem with atheism at all. However, I am getting sick of seeing how full of yourselves you are for your belief in nothing. I despise Christians more, and Catholics might even be the only thing I hate in life but god-damn do you guys like to love yourselves over literally nothing. Ever think of taking up a hobby? Boxing is fun, for ex.

Honestly, I apologize. I've been so busy with kickboxing and fighting lately I've been to tired to have a decent argument. I don't despise athiests, and I don't actually hate anyone because that's an emotion that only produces negative results. I can see how I came off earlier there. However, I still stand by my minor annoyance with atheism, only because it promotes nothing when there is clearly something going on. When I am more clear headed tomorrow, and I don't need spell check (embarrassing) I will try to flesh out a halfway decent argument. Until then, I bid you adieu.

Maybe there'd be a little more back and forth if you guys didn't all cherry pick the most ignorant Christians to pig-pile on. (see comment history)

nobody ever replies to me. but then again, it seems like r/ aetheism is really just a circle-jerk of back patting.

when i get mad about it, I try and remember that many users on here might be living in truly ignorant, cultish, oppressive places, and all this childish encouragement and all these simplistic aphorisms might actually lend them some useful support. but in most cases yall seem like cheap, half-educated fools who have read a half dozen books like The God Delusion and The Tipping Point and have probably never touched a primary text in your life. Sad.

[–]LC0728 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Right.

So none us have ever been through high-school and read books like the 'Canterbury Tales'? Nor the epics 'Beowulf' or 'The Odyssey'.

SURELY none of us took an interest in it and BOUGHT the books so they could read it whenever they want.

As well as buying the Bible, among other religious texts to do some research, maybe finding that they amount of pure hypocrisy in the texts is astounding and wonder how people get morals from it.

tl;dr? Some people actually like to read.

Not really. I've seen plenty of posts on here "bashing" Islam as well.

How hard is it to grasp though? It is explained everytime.

This is a U.S./Western world centric website. Christianity is by and far the most common religion people have experience with, so it is only natural it will come up the majority of the time.

Ive had experience with plenty of christians that "accept" gays... yet still hold that belief that what they are doing is unnatural sinning, fornication, against god's plan, deny them rights, etc.

My God teaches acceptance of all

Yeah... Unfortunately a significant portion of christians(or jews, or muslims) do not worship the same god you do.

And try therapy.

The therapy suggestion was for you. Should try it, you could benefit.

Just because someone goes to therapy doesn't mean they're incompetent or disabled mentally. bigot.

Not all Christians go out of their way to tell other people that what they believe is wrong if it contradicts their own personal beliefs

told me how my religion is wrong,

I didn't? What?

And it is pretty ironic that you take the moral high ground at someone calling you a bigot when you are in fact... acting like a hateful bigot and calling people names.

Stop playing up the victim card. You're completely full of yourself.

For the record, it isn't the Buddhist, Hindus, Wiccans, et. al. trying to jack hammer their religion into our laws. It is the mass of Christians trying to impose the tyranny of the majority on the rest of us. We ridicule all religions here because they are the organized, communal expression of fairy tales. We save a particular umbrage for Christians who want to push the United States closer to a theocracy. That is all.

Yep, just like the suicide bombers will get their 72 virgins. I feel sorry for you, you poor, brainwashed man.
